Chapter 506 Cooperative Development of Ranch
In the early morning of the next day, Li Han's whole family dispatched to escort Mr. Dudu and Mr. Baby to the kindergarten. As for Tiffany, Quinil sent a driver. Howell and Jones finally decided to go to school after thinking about it all night. . There is no need for Li Han to worry too much about the school affairs, Quinil and Jeffrey will make arrangements.
Li Han, Xue Ya, and Hathaway greeted each other, and the family set off, Dudu and Baby, Maria, and Gina went to kindergarten, Brother Taita went to elementary school, three cars, Finn and Rem drove a pickup Send Taita and Titan brothers two people.
Li Han and Jennifer drove Dudu and the others to the kindergarten. The parking lot outside the kindergarten was full of cars. The family members helped the children carry their schoolbags and walked into the kindergarten talking and laughing.
"Sister Michelle, Tom." Anderson followed Michelle with a small schoolbag, his eyes were a little strange. Thinking about half a year ago, Li Han was a small farmer who was on the verge of bankruptcy, and now he has transformed into a small town of Kemixing One of the finest large ranchers.
Dudu saw Michelle and classmate Tom from afar, waving his little hands vigorously to greet them, and the little guys jumped and hugged each other when they met. Li Han said hello and chatted with Anderson for a while. Speaking of which, Li Han admired Anderson's experience in farming and ranching, and intends to open up an apple grove on the farm.
"Hi, Han." "Hi, Cynthia, did you have a good holiday?" Li Han saw Cynthia coming, said to Anderson, and greeted her with a smile.
"Oh, not bad, the beaches in Florida are warm."
Cynthia had just returned from a vacation in the American South and looked darker. "I'll go too if I have the chance." "It's a wise decision." Cynthia said with a smile. "Baby, Michelle, oh, is Maria well?"
Cynthia was very pleasantly surprised and touched Maria's little head. "Thank God, thank Han, Maria recovered unexpectedly well, and I will trouble you in the kindergarten." Duble smiled and looked at Maria, feeling very good, with a job and a healthy child.
"That's really good, Maria is a good kid, and she would like to go to kindergarten, won't she?" Cynthia looked at Maria. "Well." "Okay, it's almost time, we should go in." Cynthia led the little ones into the kindergarten.
Dudu and Baobao waved to Li Han and the others standing outside the gate. "Don't worry, Maria will pass." Jennifer did not forget to comfort Duble, who was a little nervous. Although the admission test has little effect on whether he can enter the kindergarten, the child who fails needs parental counseling, and it is a bit inconvenient.
Duble nodded gratefully to Jennifer. "Maria has been working very hard. The test will take some time. I will treat everyone to a cup of coffee." There is a coffee shop not far from the kindergarten. Li Han sees that it is still early, so he can't waste time here.
Come to the coffee shop,
Li Han ordered coffee, cookies and snacks. "Freshly ground coffee, six cups." "The freshly ground coffee here is not bad." Li Han said, squeezed a small snack and stuffed it into his mouth. "Mom, after the test is over, let's go shopping."
Usually my mother doesn't participate in many activities. I go to church twice a week. I seldom participate in other activities because I am not used to it or take care of my family. "It's just right, Dudu and the baby are short of some looser winter clothes, buy two."
Dudu and Baobao had so many clothes that they couldn't put them down, but many of them were bought by Jennifer, so Li Han didn't say anything. Isn't it right for grandma to buy some clothes for her granddaughter? "Hehe, let's go to the supermarket for a while, the weather is very good today."
It's a pity that I have something to do at noon, so I drank a cup of coffee and chatted about the little guy. Today, the town is busier than usual because of the start of school. There are cars on the street, and many parents in the coffee shop bring their children. Li Han looked at the time, the admission test was different from the school opening test.
The kindergarten admission test is an individual test, and the school opening test is a group test. Maria and Gina need Cynthia to test in the office in person, and it takes an hour. Dudu and the baby are in the classroom, and the test time is about 40 minutes.
Dudu and Baobao are going to participate in several club activities after the test. The family followed them to listen. Jennifer and Li Han discussed the interest classes for Dudu and Baobao this year, boxing, swimming, baseball, football , and painting. Others, consider again, boxing, baseball, painting equipment and tools, although some swimming equipment is available in Jennifer's small estate, but it does not match the school. Buying a new set, plus football equipment, is about a thousand dollars.
Sure enough, the school is the most profitable. Even the almost public schools don’t charge tuition fees, but the interest classes and equipment are expensive. It’s okay not to participate in activities, but for those who want to go to a good university, extracurricular activities are as important as homework.
Just like the award certificate of Baobao and Dudu ballet, even in high school, you can add it when you fill in the information, and you can add points during the interview. But Dudu was not very satisfied with the swimming equipment, and muttered on the way back to the classroom that it was not a yellow duck swimming ring.
Li Han smiled and rubbed Dudu's little head. "I didn't mention it just now, there's no way I've already bought it." As long as the swim ring is of the right size, it doesn't matter if it's a yellow duck or not. The equipment can be bought from the coach or elsewhere. "
As a result, children in a swimming class may have different swimming goggles, swimming caps, swimsuits, swimming trunks, snorkels, kickboards, and lifebuoys. Most parents will choose the coach. Not very good for kids, no matter if it's expensive name brand or cheap brand.
Swimming equipment is relatively good, the price is cheaper, football equipment is more expensive, clothing, sneakers, socks, shin pads, wrist guards, gloves used by the goalkeeper, plus a football, more than six hundred dollars. Maria and Gina chose fewer items, three items of baseball, painting, and handicrafts. Relatively speaking, except for baseball, the other two items did not require too much expense.
After attending the school opening ceremony, Li Han packed the little guy's equipment and put it in the car. "Dudu, grandma will come to pick you up at noon, so be good." Duble and Gina's mother followed Finn and Rem back first, and Taita and Titan could take the car that picked up Howell after school. Dudu and these little guys, my mother will come over after shopping. The little guy went to school, and Li Han and Jennifer walked around with Zhang Xiuying.
After eleven o'clock, Li Han drove Jennifer's car to the Chris Manor Hotel. Jennifer, Lingna, and Li Han came to the box. This time, Jennifer helped Li Han find three cowboys, two managers, and the three cowboys He is quite well-known in Montana and has worked on ranches for more than ten years.
The managers also have many years of experience in managing large ranches and farms, and Lambton is with them. "Sorry to keep everyone waiting." Li Han shook hands one by one, and Lambton introduced them. Two managers, 42-year-old Eagle Woods, 46-year-old Terry Abbott.
Three thirty-something cowboys, Joseph, Marcus, Daniel. The conversation was quite pleasant. The three cowboys earned $2,500 a month, and Jem and Henry’s salary was three hundred higher. Of course, the salaries of the two managers were higher, more than $5,000 a month, and they had bonuses.
Li Han is still willing to pay for this little money. Now all he needs is a real helmsman. Li Han offers an annual salary of 100,000 US dollars, which is not a small amount. If he thinks he will find a good farm manager, Lambton’s annual salary is also Not over $80,000.
However, Lambton's annual bonus is close to 40,000 US dollars. Lambton recommends a person who is Albert Sarah, the manager of Little Flower Hat Farm. Albert was born in a prestigious school and once managed the ranch for the Singer family, one of the top ten landowners.
Li Han looked at the information and found that this is really a good candidate. "Lamton, please contact Albert for help." "No problem, the owner of the Little Flower Hat farm is planning to sell the farm recently, and Albert also wants to change the environment if he wants to come to Albert."
Li Han breathed a sigh of relief. The candidates for accountants and lawyers were decided, and the entire farm management structure was basically established. Li Han returned to the small farm, rested for a while, and called Liu Ming. "Some time in the afternoon, I want to hear about your plans."
"Half an hour, Chris and I will go there."
Before long, Liu Minghe and Chris arrived. Chris prepared a small gift for Dudu and his children as usual. "Han, George and David have been kicked out of the board. The board apologizes for what happened and compensates you for all losses."
Li Han snorted, and didn't pay much attention to the Chris family's compensation. The Chris family was hit hard this time. George, David and others deserved their own blame, and Li Han had no sympathy. It was just that Chris, who was also considered a victim this time, was excluded from the board of directors, and was even exiled to such a remote place as Montana. It was even more unlucky than Li Han. Li Han was a little angry, and it was fine for Harry's face. This cooperation, Chris proposed a plan, obviously Li Han wanted to take advantage of it, this may be Chris's personal apology.
Li Han had just made tea when Liu Ming and Chris arrived. "Sit down, the tea is just right." "Thank you." Chris has not been doing well recently, and the divisions within the Chris family are getting bigger and bigger. "Good tea." Liu Ming praised with a sip.
Li Han poured tea and sat down. "What you said yesterday, let me think about it and see if I have any detailed plans." "Hehe, I brought all the materials, these are all the materials." Liu Ming handed the materials he had sorted out to Li Han. "I had some ideas about the construction of the sunset valley wooden house villa group."
The plan is very detailed, including sunset valley villas, valley camping and other projects, and riding routes. "Isn't it suitable for the golf course to be built?" "Originally this place was the best, but it was sold a while ago, and I haven't found out who the buyer is."
Of course Liu Ming understands that this place is good, close to Sunset Valley, and not far from Chris Manor, forming a triangle. If the golf course is built here, it will form a larger holiday and leisure park. Except for Liu Ming’s contact with guests, Maybe it can attract more scattered customers. "This land happens to be in my hands now."
Li Hantu drew an ellipse. "All this one?" "That's right." "That's great, the golf course only needs 1,000 acres, so the riding route needs to be changed." Liu Ming started to draw.
Simply thinking about it, Liu Ming said to Chris. "This way we can save at least ten million dollars." rs
